LEVOLOR App


smart phone


LEVOLOR’s Bluetooth® enabled app allows you to schedule your window coverings to adjust automatically on a timed schedule, when paired with the Premium 6-Channel Remote.

Our unique technology allows users to program a schedule on the app while they are within range of the window covering and remote, and it will still operate once they leave the home. However, the app can not be used to adjust the programmed schedule while away from the home. The device with the app must be within the range of the remote and window covering to change the schedule.

 

bluetooth Bluetooth technology is a short-range wireless connection between electronic devices. Users need to be close by or “within range” in order for the devices to connect and talk to one another. LEVOLOR defines “within range” as being in the same room.

 

Premium Remote

Download the LEVOLOR App on your Apple and Android devices to walk through the pairing process. Use the App's scheduling function to program your window coverings to adjust automatically, while you're at home or away.

NOTE: Take all measurements to the nearest 1/8 in. DO NOT take any deductions. The factory will make the necessary adjustments to help ensure your shadings operate smoothly.

 
 
 

Before you begin your installation:

Read all installation instructions!

  • Leaving the shade rolled up completely will ease installation.
  • Confirm that the headrail and shade are the proper width and length.
  • If installing several sets of shades, be sure to match them with the appropriate window.
  • Check the installation surface to ensure that you have suitable fasteners and tools.
  • Lay out and organize all parts and components.
  • Proper shade direction during installation:
    For Traditional Roller Shades, fabric will hang off the back of the shade, closest to the window.
    For Optional Reverse Roller Shades, fabric will hang off the front of the shade.
 
 

Tools You May Need (not included):

  • Metal Tape Measure
  • Screwdrivers (both flat and Phillips head)
  • 1/4" Nutdriver
  • Safety Glasses
  • Drywall Anchors
  • Pencil
  • Drill with Bits
  • Level
  • Ladder
 
 

Step 1 - Inside Mount

Marking the Bracket Locations

IMPORTANT: Before marking bracket locations, ensure that your bracket placement will not interfere with any components inside the headrail.

  • Verify that your window casing has a minimum depth of 1-3⁄4" which allows for a partially recessed headrail mount.
  • If flush mount (fully recessed mount) is desired, a minimum mounting depth of 3" is required.
  • Mark approximately 1" from each jamb for bracket location.
  • Mark screw locations for each end bracket, 2 holes per bracket
  • If more than two installation brackets come with your order, space additional bracket(s) evenly between the two end brackets, no more than 30" apart.

Step 1 - Outside Mount

Marking the Bracket Locations

IMPORTANT: The brackets must be flush against a flat mounting surface. Do NOT mount brackets on curved molding

  • Center the shade over the window opening at the desired height.
  • Mark screw locations for each L bracket approximately 3" from end of cassette, 2 holes per bracket.
    Use a level to ensure all brackets are aligned.
  • If more than two installation brackets come with your order, space additional bracket(s) evenly between the two end brackets, no more than 30" apart.
 
 

Step 2 - Inside Mount

Installing the Brackets

  • Pre-drill screw holes.
    If installing brackets into wood, used supplied screws.
    If installing into drywall, use anchors in combination with supplied screws.
  • Screw in brackets at marked locations, 2 screws per bracket.
  • Ensure all brackets are square with each other.

Step 2 - Outside Mount

Installing the Brackets

  • Pre-drill screw holes using a 1⁄16" drill bit, using pencil marks as a guide.
    If installing brackets into wood, use supplied screws.
    If installing into drywall, use anchors in combination with supplied screws.
  • Screw in L brackets at marked locations, 2 screws per bracket.
  • Ensure all L brackets are square with each other.
  • Attach cassette mounting bracket to L bracket using screws and wingnuts.
    Make sure the release tab is always mounted on the bottom.
 
 

Step 3 - Inside Mount

Installing the Shade

  • Hook the top, middle rib of the cassette valance onto all of the bracket hooks.
  • Rotate the back of the cassette valance firmly upwards and toward the window until the groove at the bracket snaps into place.
  • CAUTION: Be sure the brackets are properly engaged before operating the shade. Failure to do so may result in the shade falling and possible injury.

Step 3 - Outside Mount

Installing the Shade

  • Hook the top, middle rib of the cassette valance onto all of the bracket hooks.
  • Rotate the back of the cassette valance firmly upwards and toward the window until the groove at the bracket snaps into place.
  • CAUTION: Be sure the bracket and headrail are properly secured before operating the shade. Failure to do so may result in the shade falling and possible injury.
 
 

Additional Components

Continuous Cord Loop Cord Tension Device

  • Continuous Cord Loop Shades will arrive with the tension device mounted to the shade.
  • Use the included screws to secure the hold-down tension device to the mounting surface, ensuring that the cord loop is taut.
  • SEE WARNING LABEL ON SHADE
 

Install the Tension Device

  • Slide the cord tensioner down to the bottom of the cord loop.
  • Using the screws provided, attach the tension device to the wall, allowing some slack for the cord to slide through easily.

IMPORTANT: When installing into drywall or plaster, use 3⁄16" drill bit and insert wall anchors (size 1⁄2", not included) before inserting the screws. When installing in metal, use appropriate anchors for metal substrate.

IMPORTANT: The tension device provides smooth operation of the shade. The shade will not operate properly unless the tension device is installed.

WARNING: It Is imperative that the cord tensioner be properly secured to the wall or window frame to reduce children’s access to the cord loop. Young children can strangle in cord loops. They can also wrap cords around their necks and strangle.

 
 
 

Install Bottom Rail Operating Handle

  • Locate optional bottom rail handle that arrived with your shade.
  • Insert front lip of the bottom rail handle into the top of the bottom rail of the shade. The handle will snap into place.

    • Hold-Down Brackets (optional)

    • Ideal for doors, hold-down brackets prevent shade from swaying. Assemble as shown to each side of bottom rail.
    • Position hold-down brackets against wall/frame, mark screw hole locations.
    • Screw into marked hole locations.
     
     

    Removing the Shade

    Cordless

    • Fully raise the shade.
    • Step 1: Press in the clear tab on the shade bracket.

    Banded Shades Guide

    Measuring Types

    Tip-to-Tip


    Tip-to-Tip Measure is the common measure type for most roller shades. Choosing this measure type will include the headrail "pegs" that mount the shade to the wall or frame.

     

    Cloth-to-Cloth


    Cloth Measure is uncommon and should only be used for Outside Frame applications. The headrail is wider than the cloth of the shade which causes the "pegs" to extend beyond the width of the shade material. This total distance is 1-3/8" wide, or a gap of 11/16" on each side of the shade material.

    NOTE: For outside mount applications allow the blind to overlap 1-1/2" to 3" on the sides, top and bottom of the window. You must add the overlap to your measurement; LEVOLOR does not add width or height for overlap on Outside Mounted shades.

    Cleaning and Care

    All LEVOLOR Banded Shades have multiple cleaning options.

    Note: Improper cleaning may void warranty

    Dusting - Use a feather duster for regular cleaning.

    Vacuuming - Use a low suction vacuum with a brush-type cleaner attachment; stroke lightly over the shade to clean.

    Forced Air - Blow away dirt and debris using clean compressed air.

    Spot-Cleaning/Stain Removal at Home - Use warm water and a mild soap, like Woolite® or Scotchgard®, if needed.

    Professional Injection/Extraction Cleaning - Call local on-site blind/shade cleaner that injects a cleaning solution into the fabric and extracts the dirty solution at the same time. The service is typically performed at home so you do not need to remove your window treatments.
